Flying Eagles-eligible winger features for two Chelsea teams within a day

Posted : 27 August 2023
Flying Eagles-eligible winger Tyrique George showcased his versatility by participating in two different Chelsea youth teams within a span of twenty-four hours.

In a whirlwind of action, George made an impact as he came off the bench for Chelsea's development squad, which unfortunately suffered a narrow 3-2 loss against Norwich City in a Premier League 2 clash on August 25. He entered the match in the 65th minute, shortly after Ronnie Stutter's goal had found the back of the net.

Undeterred by the previous day's match, Nigerian coach Hassan Sulaiman featured George as a starter in the U18 Premier League encounter against Aston Villa. 

Chelsea dominated the game with a resounding 5-1 victory at the Bodymoor Heath Training Ground. In this game, Somto Boniface, Chelsea's Academy Scholar of the Year for the 2022-2023 season, played the full game, while Kelechi Chibueze joined as a substitute in the 64th minute.

George's contributions were pivotal, as he opened the scoring with a well-executed finish during a counter-attack just six minutes into the game. He was substituted off in the 59th minute with Chelsea leading 4-0.

George's journey with Chelsea began at the U8 level, and his dedication was rewarded when he signed his first professional contract in February 2023.
